How to dismount instead of crash on enduro bikes. So hopefully you can dismount and step off your dirt bike, avoid crashes or know how to crash an enduro bike, and dismount like the top extreme enduro riders do. If you watch experienced enduro riders with a trials background, their low speed crashes don't even look like crashes. They jump off as if that's they planned to do all along. Or they gently lay their bike down as if it's afternoon nap time. These vids provide insights on how to ride dirt bikes through free enduro training vids, featuring riding techniques from Chris Birch, Graham Jarvis and other top extreme enduro riders to form the concept of cross training - a blend of trials and enduro techniques.
A well known saying from motocross is 'If in doubt, gas it!' but in the extreme enduro world it seems the opposite is true... 'give up early and work out how to get off the bike'. Cross training blends trials and enduro techniques so these enduro training vids feature many dirt riding skills and trials techniques for better off road riding.
These guys come from a trials background where the bikes are so light even we gumby riders can usually keep them under control when things go wrong. But put us on enduro bikes and it usually ain't so pretty... especially for shorter riders. What is the common feature of all the world's best extreme enduro riders? They are all former trials champions who applied who have applied trials techniques to their dirt riding skills to tackle some of the world's toughest extreme enduro events. They learn how to dismount instead of crash to save themselves. As you get the hang of it, you can try to dismount and keep control of the bike in many situations. Trials riding may not appear to share much with dirt riding - much of the action happens at walking speed - but the balance, precise, traction and clutch skills help with enduro riding, especially for hard enduro and avoiding crashes. The growing interest in extreme enduro led to an upsurge in trials riding riding internationally, and many dirt riders are now joining trials clubs to improve their overall technique in dismounting instead of crashing.

That little bit about turning right before you stop on a hill so you can keep your rear brake is gold. Thanks!
i wish i knew that one years ago, could have saved a lot of grief!
You can turn left too. Just shut the bike off and use clutch as rear brake
Best enduro channel in youtube period.
On EARTH period!
Love this channel. LOVE it. No interruption ads, great content, have to pause and rewind often to catch the pithy bits. Wanna go riding with you folks if you’d take an old-dog-newbie-dirt-guy out. Peace!
Yeah I must say I've been guilty of the "pin it to win it" method a few times lol. love this channel though. I've been riding about 3 years consistently and this channel has definitely helped me become better, as well as provided many laughs ha. great job
I'm in my late 30's and i will start my trail riding this coming January..watching almost all your helpful videos boosted my confidence.Thanks Mr.Gumby..
I'm a Northern Ontario Gumby riding up on the shores of Lake Superior and I must say since I've stumbled on to your TH-cam channel, I've never been so entertained! It's a blast to try new things I see, and have never had so much fun riding as of late. Keep it up. Love that sly humour. My cousin from Sydney has always had it too!
well we try to pass off uneducated sarcasm as sly humour neal.... and glad you see you had the right spelling on 'humour'!
Great vid. Useful stuff here for sure!
Very useful video. Just started out and only fell off once so far. But coming from a road bike background it's definitely one of my main concerns when riding. It's a great idea to actually think about and practice the best way to get off the bike if it all goes wrong. Thanks!
+hcreateutube that's the tough bit usually, making sure it all becomes second nature. covering the rear brake for wheelies is my weak spot, it's taking forever for it to become my natural response. :(
Finally!
This is the video I needed when I started practicing your techniques.
Make this video NUMBER ONE in your cross training series, it will save us poor gumby wannabees a lot of injuries.
And bike damage, and money, and pain, and embarrassment.
I am going to start practicing this in my office chair at work first thing tomorrow morning!
+JagLite48 i know, i wish we knew it that early too! for some reason it took ages to work out how the top guys made it look so smooth, then months of practice to see if it could work for us mere mortals too....
I kinda learn everything the hard way......I also have a big problem with throttle control..it’s more like a on off button.until lately I would no slide the clutch,didn’t realize it’s in oil.duh..
That dismount practice is onthe list
Thanks
I have learned to drop the bike, but hate doing it because I am poor.
get a xr400 nothing to break
poor to fix the bike r poor in getting off
amen. i cant afford to break parts. a captain goes down with his ship
@@ruthlesschoy and like many captains.... Never sail again with that strategy comrade.. 😲
if you cant afford to fix the bike after you buy i that means you couldnt afford it to begin with
very, very interesting; will take your adbvice to heart and practice
Hi, I'm fairly new to big dirtbikes, I'm 20 and had a small 110 when I was little. I just recently got a used 2013 KX250F and I am loving it so far. I've been riding trails as well as a local MX track. I haven't wrecked yet (knock on wood) and I'm very careful. I see your videos and it seems that these bikes are extremely durable but I'm still scared to drop mine. I try to take as good care of my stuff as I can.
Great video, and yeah I'm going to practice this, stuffed knees and all.
Great video! I'm healing from a crash where the front end washed out in a sandy corner. The most I've learned from that crash and watching your videos, is to STAND UP!! I was sitting when I went through the sandy corner, it wasn't very fast or tight so standing would've worked much better. So again I say thank you for showing how important it is for me to stand when I ride.
Great to hear if the video helps, Jacob!
Very informative Video! Thanks for sharing :)
Definitely will practice these tips at the track
thanks a BUNCH for all of the value that you have put up on this channel! last year before I went to Moab, I brushed up on all of the videos and spent a couple days just goofing around and practicing what I saw.
I was able to keep up with and follow my more experienced friends on their new 350 ktms while I was/am clowning around on my drz400e!
I'll look into this patreon thing or throw you some bones via Paypal, I truly believe in value for value. and you should head out to Moab or the rocky mountains! start a patreon for the trip! I assume once you get here, you'd have enough people kind enough to put you up for free and show you around.
+dean redinbaugh thanks dean, it's always a huge boost knowing guys have some good out of the training vids... it's always more about the rider than the bike hey? a mate of ours could do some very cool stuff on his old DRZ! you never know with moab and other things, in the long term i could always see if guys wanted to fly me out then i'd just cruise around filming all you guys. :)
Great tips. Watching this has made me realise that pretty much all of my 'offs happen when I can't keep the bike upright when its not moving - usually due to a stall on a hill-climb. I will give this planned-dismount approach a try for sure. Cheers!
+Rob McDermott the static balancing can make a huge difference too rob, the extra balance can often prevent getting out of shape and needing to dismount at all. i saw a massive improvement for all the guys in tough terrain once they could balance at a standstill: th-cam.com/video/kPFp0i9hNpA/w-d-xo.html
that's was so educading video and very good excercise, thank you very much
Not sure if you have covered this in other vids Barry, which are great btw, love them,
but also prevention is better than the cure! Lack of commitment (esp as we get older, as our Brain's are more risk adverse which actually imo puts us more at risk, eg in no mans land, between trying and committing) and is also the difference between the good rider and the gumby rider!
If you use too little momentum or too little commitment the dismount will be the only option!
People often try something but the lack of commitment ( brain fear controls the throttle ) means the dismount will get plenty of practice! Most times not enough momentum, which does require more throttle esp say the hill climb, then it's clutch control, but people's brain tells them the throttle off then turn it back on hence the ghost technique or the undignified dismount to the expansion chamber side!
Grip it and rip it! Then clutch it out!
Also if you are going to drop your bike, esp a 2 stroke practice dropping it on the non exhaust side of the bike which almost always is the high side so a better place to land it and save that expansion chamber from another dent!! And then ride off!
Back in my racing MX youth I used to go out the back of the farm in a muddy paddock and practice crashing in the mud so I could learn to crash and reduce the chance of injury!
Never hurt myself doing this or damaged my bike so must have worked.
Cavet is I have broken my neck, my back, my leg and my arm four times since those days! Ah the years of youth get away with anything, not nowadays!
Haha I love the pictures you put up throughout the vid
+Hunter Honda they are strategically placed to distract viewers from the sloppy riding technique, hunter ;)
CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES In all honestly y'all have a professional status in my eyes... So keep it up ;) haha
Yup! learned the hard way to stay off the front brake on diagonal wet clay downhill. Even going slow the front end came out so fast the next thing I new I took a handlebar to the ribs laying on the ground gasping for air! I'm gonna start practicing dtopping the bike more now I definatly have a tendency to hold on too long.Thanks for the video keep em coming.
+Darin L easy to do a rib on those handlebar ends hey darin? one reason i like the full handguards, at least it's not such a small point hopefully.
Love these videos man, keep up the good work
+Burnin Green thanks burnin green. i really enjoyed doing this vid, it's taken a fair while to piece together how the good riders do it so easily, and will take ages to actually learn how to do it well of course.
Though ur old trials vids are cheesy and not as good as the ones on here now they are extremely helpful ive just been watching the balancing and wheelies and double blip vids over and over again thanks
+Christian 777 i know christian, they look so daggy compared to the recent vids due to older gopro cams and not knowing so much about making vids then lol. i might redo them one day if i get into trials again...
I started my motorcycle career on a fanatic 200. Never enough money to pay for damage. This is what we did! We always throw our body under the the bike to avoid damage the health care would not pay for :)
I had a low speed bail off a 3 ft ledge while traversing it very close to the edge. No where to plant foot so I went over. As I dismounted in air(to the right) and the bike came over on me. My right leg planted on the slope below and my knee blew out bad. Always thought I’d get hurt at high speed.
in my experience, riding the slow gnarly stuff has led to less big injuries over time but just lots of constant bruises from falling off at a standstill. but of course the big ones still happen, such as my current spine fracture from coming down a steep desecent.
I love this channel. It's helped me tremendously!
always great to hear, andrew!
read the title and thought "what a bunch of nonsense" than i realized that i'm one of those guys that tend to stay on the bike and fall like idiots, gonna think about it next time ahahahah great vid
+jnuxca i can pretty much guarantee every vid we do is nonsense if you dig deep enough juxsa.... we try to just over it with a veneer of commonsense lol
Incredible videos !!!
cool! its bad ass you can put more time into the vids! very informative like none other keep up the good work! just a thought you spoke of being able to acquire new riding gear. Would be cool to have a review on the products too
Thanks mate. I need to practice crashing for a day to control the fear of falling off. I used all of these techniques over my life but it’s hairy thinking about trying it all on prosthetic legs. Tk all you who are scared, come riding with me in south aus haha
Fantastic commentary, keep it up. Not only a good video, but a great laugh!
Glad you enjoyed it Rodolfo!
Man, I love your videos! Thank you so much,
+BrianSanDiego1 you're welcome brian! this is one should have posted ages ago but we needed to learn it ourselves.
luv your vids keep up the great work
+Jamie Total Testing thanks jamie, will do....
Nice video, nice soundtrack :)
Great training vidéo, and what is nice also I am understanding each time better and better the Aussie language ... :)Need to practice this week end.
+Joel h (joelh) luckily the state i come from we talk pretty slowwwwwwwwwwly. i will do some more horrendous usa accents again soon though :)
Love this channel. Keep it up!!
Thanks, Aaron. Will do!
love how you explained why it is called ghosting haha
brilliant information......
Hey buddy. You make awesome vids, I also wanted you to know how much help these videos are and how much I have learned from them. I always rode atv's, and figured it would be semi easy to switch to hard enduro.. I was incredibly wrong. However these videos made it easier to get a hang of it so thank you!! Keep up the work on the awesome vids.
+Ryan Watson it's tough hey ryan? so much of this stuff it felt like we'd never wrap our brains around it but over 18 months we've made some progress which is great. and lots of bruises and bent bike bits in the process. :)
Haha I hear ya. I have been working on my more technical stuff for about 4 months now and slowly but surely I'm getting better no Jarvis of course but hey we can't all be gods right??
Looking cool even when dropping your bike. Another training objective!
Normally lead with my shoulder on the dismount ..... Good advise as always cheers for the video
like your videos and explanation.
Good info.
Your commentary is hilarious 🤙🏼
Love the vid, haha haven't heard the word "gumby" in a long time!
Very good video amplified testosterone. Nicely done I subscribed
hey Barry. sweet vid as usual, but you did forget to mention wearing KISS boots for the short riders to help with slow speed dismounts, haha. It is funny how we evolve into different people as we learn new things. I am amazed at what different riding skills and ideals can do to change a perspective on dirt bikes. As I got into riding later in life I was already thinking about how to have fun, be fast and enjoy riding without tearing up the land, my body and equipment. Through your vids I have had the chance to learn and try new skills and ways to ride. So from me, thankyou and I am going to share your vids on my facebook as you try to go forward with even better vids. I wish you all the best Barry!! I will make a donation in the near future. cheers man!! (: good luck.
+jerry delyea damn you are right jerry... next time i mentioned stump legged riders i was going to photoshop gene simmons on to a dirt bike, doh. it's true, your riding style really changes doesn't it? it feels so much safer challenging our stuff with this slow stuff compared to just going nuts on easy tracks.
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES Stump legged riders? I resemble that remark! (I live that remark...) #inseamchallenged
Love your videos man! Ride safe
+motomax cheers motomax, riding a tad safer now we are trying to put this stuff into action :)
Falling never looked so Cool ! :-)
Yep, had my fair share of big gumby bike flings. But doing so many hills all the time, I am usually pretty good at laying it down nicely.
+JoeJoe Moto Seriously?! Did you just say that right now?! LOL!! Well, I guess you did qualify it with "usually". It was only the one bad get off...
+gncc1race hahaha yeah, usually....... not the last one though!
JoeJoe Moto
Yeah, that last one doesn't go in the "win" column. Unfortunately...
Great Information here. Thanks!
+Keith Castleberry no probs keith, glad to pass it all on from the experts even if we aren't much good at it ourselves lol
4.38 that hug saved him
+Mr. Moo (Carter) her. there's no way our guys would step in to save another male. but kirsty is extremely cute which helps too :)
I’m now looking at this again.. but now it’s also that My knee is sort of popping out a little in certain situations. I can’t just jump out of the way so easily. Just not as nimble. So watching again to see if I can pick up techniques for those not as nimble.. maybe I can just step or move out of the way In simpler moves.
Great video! Thanks for sharing these great skills. I can't wait to ride again!!!
Edit: "Queen of the Gumbies" haha!
every woman on a dirt bike must be placed on a pedestal and worshipped daily in my book liz!
I really could have used this video a few weeks ago. All those backwards crashes on a hillclimb is what got me. Time to go practice dismounting so I don't get taken for a backwards ride into a crash again.
I need to practice it too, just backflipped the bike on our last ride at a standstill because I forgot to just jump off and hold it. Doh!
@@crosstrainingenduro All it takes is one painful crash to force the experienced riders to remember these techniques or for newbies like me to learn them for the first time! Thank you for your video here, and for your response to my comment on an almost 5 year old video!
Just come back from my first ride for over a year (been busy having heart attacks and shit) took it easy cos it's real wet and slippery here in the UK, then for some strange reason I thought my name was Barry and tried a rock section! Say no more.. Dent in the exhaust on my brand new exc 250 sixdays!! and I have the carbon cover! Plus I hurt my shoulder!! So I'm defo gonna practice jumping off😂
Thanks for sharing 😜
+stanley gardiner great news the heart attack didn't wipe you out stan, that sort of thing must be a shock and get you thinking about the stuff you want to do with your life? like beat you and yourself senseless in rock sections lol! so many drops in rocks for me, why didn't i do this crazy shit in my 20s or 30s? hope the shoulder heals up fast....
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES thanks for the kind words mate, the wife was not keen on me getting back on the bike but I'd rather die ridding and having fun rather than die siting in my chair!
we've gotta give them young guns a run for their money or at the least give em someone to laugh at😜
Another great video
+shadow4311 thanks shadow, i wish we had figured this out earlier, would have saved a lot of bruises lol
I wish I had this video in my teens. TH-cam wasn't a thing yet. I was scared to death to ride my Dad's XR 500 Honda. I was a wimp I thought for sure I'd hurt myself.
Nice video, i knew the technic but i had never thought to train for that ! i'm going to do it ! Thanks for the idea :)
+hard enduro montoncel we need to as well, we only started to practice jumping off for this vid...
Ok, i hope we will do it as well as ruben chadwick ! He 's really great on a bike !
I needed to see this a few weeks ago 🤣
very interesting vid
I (newb off-roading dual sporter) have not seen anything like this, offered as “sketchy places” riding lessons. Nice! It’s probably not in my best interest to try and learn this (at 68), as I’m not so buoyant as you kids, but it’s quite enticing.
Welcome to dual sport, Peter! I'm a few years behind you and I find I'm not jumping off the bike anywhere near as quickly as I used to... so I'm just dialing back the risks to survive my rides nowadays. 😊
I'm catching up on all of the old vids I haven't watched yet (6 months worth! How'd that happen?) Getting good at stepping off is absolutely the way to go in anything technical---say under 10 mph (15 kph). I'm amazed at how many vids I see where people launch their bikes from basically a standstill.
However, the "when in doubt, throttle out" mantra DEFINITELY applies when at speed. Going through a corner and the front end washes out? Punch it. Getting a bit of huck-a-buck through a set of whoops? Lean back and give it more gas. Same deal if there's suddenly a big hole in the trail that you didn't see coming. In open desert riding, it's like a way of life. I estimate that it saves me 8 times out of 10, gets me in more trouble 1 time, and I wouldn't''ve saved it either way the remaining time
good job
Had to practice that yesterday. oddly enough my friend dismounted his bike and I dismounted onto his bike and off of his bike. It was a complicated situation and thankfully at low speed.
+Gnarlington and i'm sure cirque du soleil will be in touch shortly about hiring you guys, gnarlington. :) i figure as long as youv'e got clothes on it will be a winner!
I've been trying to practice some of the basics in the early videos, but I'm still lucky if I can mount the bike most days, let alone jump a 4' log halfway up a 85* incline and still make it to the top without displacing even the smallest particle of dirt via wheel spin.
I am good at watching videos, however.
+Jedediah Gregory me too, i'm hoping there will be a really good cross training video game release soon and i can just avoid keeping and riding real bikes completely
It would save a ton of money and not hurt as much.
Tomorrow's game plan is to attempt lifting the front wheel on purpose again. We'll see how that goes.
This could be the most useful Enduro video of all time.
Glad you think so!
Thanks man..
Great video!
+Rlindagem thanks rlindagem!
Vids are great bud, we all share the same passion, thanks for sharing with us. I left a small donation via PayPal. cheers. PS- leaving for Mesquite NV in 2 weeks for an 8 ride, so stoked bc I'm up in Canada and we are just getting rid of the last of our snow.
thanks, will email back soon. can't wait to get back to BC... so much epic riding there.
That sounds great, FYI my riding group is planning a 7-day ride based out of Kamloops BC in early July ;) Mostly single day loop rides back to Kamloops with one overnighter ( 2 dayer). Like you said, BC has some amazing riding!~ You should think about it.
Can I push thumbs up twice? Great tips in here...no pun intended
0:33 somehow not the first place that comes to mind for a motorcycle ride 😁
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! This is exactly what I needed!!
thanks, guys this was so helpful I'm going to mates to ride and don't want to bares myself when I crash
Glad it was useful Ari!
Great advice as always from your vids
+SatNavGav thanks satnavgav, i wish i had learned this stuff years ago instead of just the past year
Yes I hear what you are saying.... at least you are doing it now!
I've a long way to go before I get to your level, I've just started (You'll be able to tell if you see my first youtube upload)
03:30 I was just thinking that, and yes.
Guys, still love your videos! Amazing to see how you are ridin´ in Australia!
Which handguards do you use?
+KTM & Husqvarna Eric thanks eric! i'm using the fastway handguards which have been great. th-cam.com/video/i2Py_C-pW_M/w-d-xo.html plenty of stacks and no issues. if you plan on having any really hard fast crashes you might find the cycra ones are even tougher but i haven't had a chance to try those.
Wish I had watched these videos before I broke my spine. Awesome content.
Ouch. Compression fracture? I did my T4 about 18 months ago, and hairline fractures in the T3 and T5.
I defenetly have to work on this.
Thanks for this the other day i was (as u would call) Gumby riding fell and banged my head down a hill and got a nasty concussion. This should help prevent that hopfully
+Enduro Joe yeah, how did that go, joe? all clear now? i work in the brain injury area and they reckon now that concussion can sometimes lead to permanent effects. rare, but can happen. i hope all is fine.
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES thanks for the care & concern. Still have head aches and stuff but riding is life & nothing stops me from enduro riding haha. I was back out on the trails the next day and im all good now.
Unfortunately here at my practice course on the 10 acres behind the house it's really steep and when wet a really slippery clay. Even going slow I managed to lose the front going slow but came out from under me like on ice. Cracked a couple ribs and bought leatt body Armour the next day lesson learned!
+Darin L ouch. i bruised my ribs last year and it took even longer to heal that cracked ribs do. hiccups and sneezing are incredibly painful hey darin?
Wow! This is exactly what I do when I feel like I'm about to fall or crash. It was just common sense and instinct to me. Lmao I feel lucky!
I had an unfortunate crash on a first gear wheel hop through a wash out at old Caloundra road recently and ended up breaking my fibular due to the crash. I didn't let the bike warm up enough and it bogged when I wanted it to power on then the power came in as the back wheel dropped in to the rut. I didn't try to dismount but instead heald on and this caused the bike to loop over and land on my leg. Lesson learned there but struggling to re gain the confidence for the first time in my life. I've ridden bikes for the last 20 years but this one rattled me. I guess because I don't bounce like I used to
I know the feeling, Lachlann! It's not a pleasant headspace to be in but probably a good thing in the long run. It makes us reassess how much risk we should be taking as we get older. Funnily enough I did a two whole vids about this. th-cam.com/video/H7N_dBNqa7I/w-d-xo.html
picking up a 2000 cr250r soon. looking forward to practicing your more technical tips. cheers!
+65elcamino283 woohoo! any planned mods? do they make guards for that exhaust, it looks as though it hangs lower than many of the enduro bikes (only a concern if doing logs, big rocks etc of course).
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES yeah, i'm super excited for that light of a bike finally. I basically shot my mod-wad on my dr though, so i'm gonna have to go lightly($) on the cr. i'll definitely need to look into a bash plate that protects the pipe now that you mention (i really hope something is out there for that because endurocross/trials type of riding is THE reason i want a light smoker over my dr) so i sincerely thank you for bringing that point up-I had spaced that off entirely. damn! (i've never owned a two-stroke). Some bark busters too, and about it for mods(i "say", but "doing" is always something else entirely it seems, right?) :-)
+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES by the way, that bash plate on that kato at 00:00:32 looks super sexy protective. do you happen to know offhand who makes that one?
+65elcamino283 force accessories, almost everyone i know with a 2T is running one of those and they get heaps of orders from overseas too. forceaccessories.com.au/
“Never raced, never dropped. $6500 firm. I know what I have. No low ballers.”
This is so helpful
great to hear, lucian!
I started looking at this after I almost broke my leg yesterday :D
Hello , I live in Brazil , always watch your videos . I wonder which country these videos are recorded ?
+Heverton Beppler in australia heverton, obrigado for watching the vids :)
Thank you for the time spent on your videos sir. An alternative examination will help even the most 1337 riders. Plenty of handpicked edited clips to observe physics in action. I am a person just like many whom seeing things in real life action is almost as good as doing it myself, as long as you can imagine yourself doing it in 3 dimensions just as you were there like they just did. If someone else did it, you could do it too. Our brain only sees a pseudo-interpretation of the real world from our senses(arguable how many there are), not necessarily the truth. As long as the physics of your imagination is true, your imaginative reality may not be much difference away from the real life experience of it.
I just dismount by hitting them trees that keep jumping out on me .
Jsut got a dirt bike thrusday going to ride tommorow for the first time and need to learn lol
Check out our playlist of basic skills. It makes a huge difference when you avoid poor technique from the start! Figure eights, clutch slipping and balancing at a standstill are boring but a great start.
There's a good clip of JW22 ghosting the last few feet (meter to you) of a ledge during the '15 Erzberg in the early forest section. Not sure if there's copyright mumbo jumbo on the Redbull's video so not sure if you can use it but it's a good shot with audio.
+J Sem thanks J Sem, i think i know the ledge you mean and it would be great to include it but i better opt out due to copyright stuff... i've got annoyed when people pinch my vids then slap ads on to try and cash in so would be a hypocrite if i did it too. :) we'll have to trash our own bikes i guess lol.
when I was young my dad told me you need to learn how to jump of the bike. that time I have a beta 50cc so I am cinda pro at this
Alright. I grew up around 4wheelers but never rode a dirt bike. I want to buy one soon. What's the difference in 2-stroke and 4stroke? I weigh 250lbs and I'm about 5'11". Should I get a 450? Being more on the heavy side. Or should I get a 250 bc I'm new.
A few weeks ago, I stepped off and as I stepped away the bike landed on my heel, shattering one bone and fracturing another. I have more respect for the mass of the bike and realize that I need motocross rather than enduro boots for some types of riding. And, I should practice dismounts like the video suggests.
i even wear my mx boots when adventure riding now, luke. had very bad lower leg fractures from a dirt ride in hiking boots, learned my lesson well lol.
Ima try this with my 265 pound xr400r
I never throttle it, I always laid it down easily.
noticed one of the fellas had his rec reg plate on his back, great idea does he get any attention from the po po?
we don't ride on the road like that. it's probably technically not legal in state forests but i think the rangers and cops usually figure we are trying to do the right thing....
